SUN or MARS in TAURUS

The type of man who attracts you is strong-willed and "all man", and also sensual and stable - the classic "strong silent type".

Men who are "earthy" and/or "down-to-earth" appeal to you, and it may be important to you that he likes animals or nature or "natural" things.

A man who can cook, cuddle, and care for your comfort interests you. An appreciation for fine food and music may be part of the attraction, and you may be particularly attracted by a fine singing voice or "sexy" speaking voice. The scent of a man is arousing.

The Sun Sign is what the average person answers when you ask "What's your sign?"

If Sun and Mars are in the same Sign, the attraction to that type is extra strong!

For convenience, the typical dates the Sun is in a particular Sign are given. If the woman's birth date is the same as one of the "cusp dates" given here, you may find that the Sun Sign for the date one day before or after that date is more appropriate. This is because in some years the Sun moves into the next Sign one day before or after these typical "cusp dates" - and it also depends on what time of day the Sun actually crossed the Cusp. Click here for more information on Cusps.

We can use these convenient "cusp dates" for the Sun because our calendar was designed to conform to the apparent motion of the Sun. But the position of Mars does not conveniently match the calendar; so you will have to look up its position on the exact month/day/year of birth from the listings in an astrological or naval "Ephemeris", or get a computer-calculated
"natal horoscope chart" based on the birth data.

Before you look up your own Mars Sign, try an experiment - read about all twelve "types" and then choose the one (other than your Sun Sign) which best describes the second "type" of man who attracts you. Is it the same "type" your Mars Sign predicts? Has your dating history included partners with that Sun Sign?

NOTES TO MEN

(1) If a man were to read these same descriptions which match his own natal Sun Sign, he may find some strong similarities between the traits women with that Sun Sign seek in a mate, and the ways he tends to express his own masculine side.

(2) If a man were to read these same descriptions which match his own natal Mars Sign, he may find some strong similarities between these traits the same Mars Sign women are attracted to in a lover, and the kind of women who make him feel or act more masculine or "sexy", or who draw out his masculine energy (which is similar to his own Mars Sign "type").

It's natural for a man to quite unconsciously shift into a mode of self-expression matching his own Sun Sign "type" when in the presence of women he would like to impress.

It's natural for a man to quite unconsciously shift into a mode of action matching his own Mars Sign "type" when in the presence of a woman he desires to win.
